Preparation of a neutral nitrogen allotrope hexanitrogen C2h-N6

As AgN 3 is an excellent reagent for the synthesis of polyazides35 and halogen azides both in the gas phase36 and in solution37,38, we suggest that the reaction of AgN 3 with XN 3 (X = halogen) is a viable route to N 6 (Fig. 1b). The reactions were conducted in either a quartz tube or a U-trap by flowing gaseous Cl 2 through solid AgN 3 under reduced pressure at room temperature (see the ‘Synthesis details’ section in Methods and Supplementary Fig. 1).

Right off the bat, I'm letting you know this bed is made of neither silk nor snow. I would argue that it’s made with something even better—latex. The feel of latex can be hard to pinpoint, as I’ve heard it compared to everything from a thicker yoga mat or trampoline to even a waterbed. The fact of the matter is that latex has cushioning, pressure relief, and a bouncy feel. It’s also pretty good at keeping out heat and allergens, which is a win for hot sleepers and those with allergies. With the
